Let’s take a look at the Round Robin Model. In this method leads are assigned directly to agents in a set rotation. Picture a bird’s nest… Where each chick is fed a certain amount of worms in a set order. This rotation can be weighted or equal. This allows you to adjust the percentage of leads given to each agent in a manner that best fits your business strategy.

What type of team is this right for you ask?

1. The agents must be open to handling the entire nurturing process, from registration to closing.
2. There needs to be an admin in place that can regularly monitor the Accountability Dashboard
3. The agents will not only need to be highly motivated, but they must also embrace technology.
